back the proper EAP failure message in order to get Windows to re-prompt for

Yes!

We use secureW2, Radiator and LDAP, but have not seen any report
of IIRC for that case.
During spring break we plan to switch to PEAP, built-in Windows Client,
and AD (we already have that running for our Exchange install.).

Philippe

PS: our 802.1x is optional. We still don't know if it's not successful
    because our implementation is cumbersome, or just because users
    want ultimate convenience ;-)
